Re: What Is The World's Worst Film You Have Ever Seen ?

Duel works for me, quite minimalist but Steven Spielberg was still learning the directing ropes. It was originally a telemovie but had some scenes added to make it long enough for a theatrical release.

"Ones" ? ....Only one Brosnan film here (Die another day).....Moonraker was a ridiculous mess, likewise Octopussy but to a lesser extent. The Bond novels were not written as comedies, they were stories of espionage. Fleming would be turning in his grave. Thank goodness Daniel craigs Bond turned the tide

Oops! - my mistake.

As you say, many of the films are nothing like the books. Moonraker is a good example and the Spy Who Loved Me is another obvious one - completely different. I did like Mr Moore's era though as it was funny and tongue in cheek and I am always up for a re-watch of his stuff.

Nothing like Daniel Craig's bond, but I rate him as well for a different viewing experience. Each to his own!
